Merry Christmas...

I always get kind of sad the day after Christmas. All the anticipation and excitment and it is over way too quick. But we did have a great day!! We stayed home for a few hours and just enjoyed our new stuff, then it was off to Grandmas house for another round of gifts! Then we went over to my sisters house for dinner and a fun evening of games on the wii and even some board games!



Jordan got some fun stuff. An awesome race track, a Star Wars nerf gun, Buzz Light year and Sheriff Woody and a few computer games.



Morgan was very excited about her real pink guitar (Thanks Santa, now we will have to buy lessons) and her Hannah Montana pogo stick (which she is pretty good at).



Jordan was very excited about all the toys and candy in his stocking!



Morgan got Hannah body spray and a Camp Rock notebook, and candy of course.



This is the kids patiently waiting for dad to get up, they just wanted to hold a present. They were up at 4:45, and we made them go back to bed. I was surprised that thay both zonked back out.

Snow Fun...

We took the kids to Rock Canyon for some sledding fun!! They are both fearless, the faster and steeper the better!!They would have stayed there all day. After about two hours Greg and I were worn out, starting to freeze and ready to go. We got the usual "Just one more time, Please!!" I can't believe they weren't frozen! It was a really good time!







Party with Santa...

Saturday night we went to our neighbors annual Christmas party. Santa made a grand entrance, singing carols and shouting ho ho ho! The kids were so excited!





This year we took my niece and nephew Brenden and Eleesa and my friends baby Aisley. She wasn't so sure about Santa, but she seemed to like has bells.



Gregs Work Party...

Greg really has an amazing boss! Every year he has a Christmas party somewhere awesome, sometimes it's in Vegas, other times it is somewhere local. This year we went to Midway and stayed at the Zerrmont Resort. There is always dinner and dancing and we even get to stay overnight!



Greg and his boss Gary.



Gregs awesome dance moves.

Count Down To Christmas...

This is my favorite time of the year! We always put up our tree the day after Thanksgiving. This year Morgan was so excited to help, she wanted to put the "ingredients" on the tree! I laughed so hard when she said that! As she was taking them (the ornaments) out of the box, she kept saying "Wow mom, where did we get all of these, they are so adorable!" We had a lot of fun!
When we were finished, she asked "Is Santa coming tonight?" I told her no and that on Monday, Dec 1st, we would start the countdown. Jordans favorite part was setting up the train, he didn't care much about the tree.
So this morning the count down began, we have an advent calander that plays music when you open the doors, and inside each door there are treats for the kids. They have been waiting patiently since friday, and the first thing Morgan said to me this morning was "Mom today we get to open the calander, remember!" Also starting tonight we will read a christmas bed time story every night until Christmas. I just love the whole feel of the season and all the fun traditions!







Standing in line to see Santa, They are so excited!!
